There needs to be a hard underline between wfmu & drummer. That'll fix 'er on up.

efd:
It looks like there's just a typo in the "href=" value for that link that's messing it up, which I'm sure Amanda will fix when she has a moment to catch her breath. This url will work in the meantime:
http://wfmu.org/wfmu_drummer.pls

Wed. 7/6/11 12:16pm
Drummer Some:
Amanda, the LIVE link you typed in is missing the colon ":" after the http.

Wed. 7/6/11 12:18pm
Amanda:
Fixed!

But, there seems to be a problem with the turntable? Did anyone hear that Clean record I tried to play?

Wed. 7/6/11 12:18pm
Carmichael:
He he ... I bet we were all A/V geeks in high school, and ran the projector on film day.

Wed. 7/6/11 12:19pm
Bridget:
Hey Amanda!

Wed. 7/6/11 12:21pm
Brian in UK:
Hey Amanda how's about playing a 45 at 78. Do you think we'll notice?

Wed. 7/6/11 12:22pm
Carmichael:
OK, total Comfortably Numb-related.

Where do you find this crap?!? :-))

Wed. 7/6/11 12:38pm
Amanda:
Alf -- yes, I think so? In this case?

This can't hold a candle to the Mighty Mighty Bosstones' version of "Chicken Of The Sea."

Wed. 7/6/11 12:56pm
listener james from westwood:
I had a Morris t-shirt back in the day. It was my first experience with watching a treasured article of clothing die by degrees after repeated washing. Morris just faaaaaded away...

Wed. 7/6/11 12:58pm
Amanda:
efd, you might be right about Chicken of the Sea, but I want to wait until Matt is dead and buried before I ever play the Bosstones anywhere.

Bridget and ljfw-- LUCKY!!! Both of you!

Wed. 7/6/11 12:58pm
ndbob:
Ah the lovely Free Design.

Wed. 7/6/11 1:02pm
Carmichael:
My sister had a Kliban's Cats beach towel. They were cool way back when.

Wed. 7/6/11 1:04pm
efd:
If I am right it would impressive because I made that up! Also, since Matt will likely outlive me I'm glad to know that I don't have to worry about you playing the Bosstones during my lifetime.

Wed. 7/6/11 1:04pm
Carmichael:
Oh man, Amanda. This is bringing back my youth. If you play The Poppy Family, I may explode with joy!

Wed. 7/6/11 1:06pm
Amanda:
Carmichael -- ah, I remember those days well, believe it or nuts. Talk about bringing back childhood!

efd -- I guess you both must be proud of me for my ignorance of the Bosstones' catalogue

Wed. 7/6/11 1:09pm
Carmichael:
If you like ska but dislike the BossTones, you may want to try The Crazy 8s, out of Portland OR.

Richard from Venezuela:
Agreed. Kashmir is so much better.

Wed. 7/6/11 1:22pm
Drummer Some:
I can't hear but that's because I'm watching the playlist on my dumb phone from the waiting room at my daughter's dentist. Looks great from here, Amanda.

are you defending stairway? sheeeeeesh.

Wed. 7/6/11 1:23pm
ndbob:
lol.. I never paid much attention to the Poppy Family for years since I didn't like "Which Way Are You Going Billy" but i grew to love them - but not that song.

Wed. 7/6/11 1:28pm
glenn:
shouldn't l'il abner be singing this?

Wed. 7/6/11 1:29pm
Carmichael:
These guys used to be the T-Bones. They had a hit song for an Alka Seltzer commercial called No Matter What Shape (Your Stomach is in).

I thought the deejay's worst nightmare was what you just described plus inexplicably back in school and pantsless.

Wed. 7/6/11 1:29pm
listener james from westwood:
i can only name three or four zep songs. the rest i have to mimic the opening riff. my friends find this comical.

i've heard a couple of fmu djs mention having the "i forgot all my records at home" nightmare.

Wed. 7/6/11 1:30pm
Carmichael:
I have recently become familiar with Zep tunes by listening to Dread Zeppelin.

Wed. 7/6/11 1:30pm
Amanda:
No, DJs are usually OK with being pantsless. In fact, many of us prefer to be on the air in that state.

Wed. 7/6/11 1:32pm
glenn:
way to destroy the fantasy, amanda.

Wed. 7/6/11 1:32pm
glenn:
also, dread zeppelin is fuckin' awesome.

Wed. 7/6/11 1:35pm

Beaver Springsteen.

It's theatre of the mind! I have on whatever kind of pants I say I do!

Wed. 7/6/11 1:36pm
seang:
totally

Wed. 7/6/11 1:37pm
listener james from westwood:
"pantsless" triggers a memory: in a long-ago ny times article about nachum segal and jm in the am, ken freedman was referred to as "hatless," to distinguish him from the more orthodox jm crew. for some weeks afterwards, ken referred to himself on the message board as "hatless station manager ken"

Wed. 7/6/11 1:38pm
listener james from westwood:
he eventually reverted to his older "elder scapegoat ken" message board signature

Wed. 7/6/11 1:39pm
glenn:
pantsless board op / awesome d.j. amanda?

Wed. 7/6/11 1:42pm

All I know is that God hates Ken.
